It's hard to live in the shadow of another. The American classic novel, Rebecca, first found life in the celebrated Alfred Hitchcock classic. Once again, it finds a resurgence with a new Netflix. This Gothic romance holds a hint of psychological horror close to its chest as it tells the story of a woman finding love. We celebrate Rebecca because of its subtle approach to mental health, finding a new beginning and what years of mental anguish can have a person. The Mouse and Weens podcast (http://bit.ly/338guest) join us to discuss the original 1940 film, which you can stream for free here now: https://youtu.be/YZ_PBT-1vGA, and the 2020 remake.
